What will you be using for barrels?

You can also use different electric wires as barrels...

Oh btw, horizantal parts on superstructure so far are all .030 except the cam shaped riser in front which is .040 top/bottom and structure sheeted with .012

Good looking work there Gary, keep it up. Certainly scratchbuilding a ship from bare plastic tends to be a lot more satisfying than working with a kit!

Nice work Gary

Hmmm. Sorry but I just see little problem...

No offense...No offense...

Did you see that the form of the hull is irregular under the bridge, certainly deformation made by manipulations ...

No offense again.

Actually I have. Its from using too thin a sheet worrying about the curves at the bow and stern and it rippled a bit. Im debating reskinning the sides except about the first 1/2 inch on both ends

...Personnaly, I use 3mm thickness to built hull, deck and sides.
Strong enough to support all the work and manipulations, I could'nt see deformation 20 years later...
